::picker(select) {}
::picker(date) { }
::picker(color) {}

Alright, we're letting @amitsheen.bsky.social take over CSS-Tricks... all week! He's got a three-parter that's a super deep dive into 3D layered text.

Part one is all about creating an index of layers for adding depth, and it's full of goodies.
